Sturridge looks to be 'Pool's Anderton. That will be extremely frustrating for them and for the player.
id agree with that, he does have talent and seems like quite a determined young man, he used to get knocked off the ball in his second season with us quite a lot, maybe got found out a bit after his breakthrough but he worked on his strength on the ball and to be fair is now quite hard to bully for a little chap. true he and his agent kinda ****ed us slightly but i think football wise his attitude is quite good, he is still young and not forgetting he is a recovering balloon addict i think he has shown he is willing and able to improve aspects of his game, i think he will improve more in the future too. i dont think he has what it takes to ever be a worldie but he is capable of the tier "2" stars in years to come. we got a pretty penny for him and he wanted out, it was a bit messy on part of his agent but i dont really hold any grudges against him.
**** yeah its extremely frustrating and depressing mate i mean its looking like if after this "pre-season" training regime he's doing now that if he cant stay fit then he hes going to be out the door, its a shame if it turns out that way for him and us because his record when fit is second to none and thats even after suarez left.
I also rate Sterling. His pace, especially changing direction, make him very dangerous. But I think Alli is even better. Perhaps not quite as dangerous--perhaps--but, unlike Sterling, big and excellent defensively.
Shame, for you guys. As a striker, I rate him highly, but his injury problems have dogged him everywhere he goes.
It's being reported somewhere in the news that Newcastle are going to buy Sturridge for £18m! The Toon are also going to buy Townsend for £18m. Oh, and Townsend, too, for - yes, you guessed it - £18m! Some hack, somewhere on Fleet Street, has heard that Newcastle are planning on spending £18m, and the word has spread, except none of the copycat hacks can agree on which player they are going to buy for £18m!
So one footed though, so predictable. Not international standard. Too inconsistent, one good game, five or six average to poor. Give me a young Aaron Lennon any day. Streets ahead. As Stirling ages and loses his pace, his value will plummet. Likely to finish his career in one of the Sunderland's/Swansea's of this world. Selling him was Rodgers (and FMG's) best ever transfer deal.
Actually, I made a mistake. What I meant to write is this. Toon are being reported as wanting to buy:- Sturridge for £18m Berahino for £18m Townsend for £18m Clearly, the hacks have heard that the Toon have £18m to spend, but they cannot agree on which player!
Unfortunately, I do make mistakes. They are usually easy to spot, as they are the ones that tend not to wind up Pixie and his band of elves and fairies.
Yes, the Fail's claim yesterday that Mike Ashley has sanctioned a £100m spending spree over the next 10 days was quite amusing, given that Ashley hasn't spent more than 50p on improving the squad over the past 10 years.
Yes, I did chuckle at that! The idea that a skinflint like Ashley is going to blow £100m on a club that's probably going to get relegated is just cruel on Toon fans.

Norwich 2 v 1 'Pool HT This is a real tussle between mid table 'Pool and a feisty Norwich side that want to join 'Pool in mid table! It really could go either way! Can Klipperty's Kloppers rescue a point that will send them into pantomime-holding-hands-bow frenzy?
